Hemp Advocacy

Vote Hemp

Vote Hemp is a nonprofit organization dedicated to increasing acceptance of industrial hemp (low-THC oilseed and fiber varieties of cannabis). It also works for changes in current law to allow U.S. farmers to grow the crop. Vote Hemp educates the public about hemp and lobbies for lifting state and federal restrictions on growing it

Hemp Industries Association (HIA)

The Hemp Industries Association is a nonprofit trade association representing businesses, farmers, researchers, and investors working with industrial hemp. The group is at the forefront of the drive for fair and equal treatment of industrial hemp. Since 1994, the Hemp Industries Association has been dedicated to education, industry development, and the accelerated expansion of the international market for hemp products. The industry has positioned itself over the past two decades to once again become a major global economic force. Hemp is one of our planet’s most important natural resources, and the association advocates using it to its full potential.

Hemp History Week

Hemp History Week began in 2009 and is an annual nationwide public education campaign culminating in grassroots events, promotions on hemp products in retail stores, hemp plantings, documentary screenings, lobbying and other advocacy efforts each spring in order to celebrate America’s rich history with industrial hemp before it was outlawed and educate the public about the barriers to and benefits of hemp farming in the United States. Hemp History Week has played a significant role in elevating advocacy for a federal policy change while sending a strong, positive message to the President and Congress to remove barriers to hemp farming and let farmers grow the versatile and profitable crop. The campaign engages consumers by showcasing the range of hemp products available and the nutritional as well as environmental benefits that they provide while driving sales and interest in hemp brands that are innovating nutritious and environmentally friendly products.

What does Movement Media do for the Hemp Industry?

Movement Media has represented a national trade group, a national non-profit advocacy organization, and a variety of hemp brands and marketing efforts all working to promote the legalization of industrial hemp farming. Movement Media currently manages on going PR and media relations work for Vote Hemp and the annual Hemp History Week campaign. From facilitating media coverage and outreach to communications strategy and video production, we work to change outdated policy and amplify advocacy and marketing efforts related to this sustainable and ecological crop.

Fair World Project

Fair World Project is an independent effort of the Organic Consumers Association that seeks to:

Protect the use of the term “fair trade” in the marketplace,

Expand markets for authentic fair trade,

Educate consumers about key issues in trade and agriculture,

Advocate for policies leading to a just economy, and facilitate collaborative relationships to create true system change.

Fair World Project was launched in 2010 with an emphasis on promoting fair trade in commerce, especially in organic production systems, and protecting the term “fair trade” from dilution and misuse for mere PR purposes. While guided by the principles of fair trade, Fair World Project has expanded its mission to include labor justice, sweatshop-free apparel, and small-scale farming.
